Debian package: how to relabel

Debian package: how to relabel

[Dale Amon]

Question for either one of you. How do I do the equiv
of a make relabel with the debian package install? I
have a man page for setfiles but can't seem to find
the command itself...

Close but no cigar. I'm missing /usr/sbin/setfiles.
What package should have installed it? I've got
a man page for it but no binary.

In answer to my own question, it appears to be part of the
policycoreutils package, but is not installed for some
reason... I think a forced reinstall is in order!

I guess there are problems with the dependencies for Debian packages.  
Reinstall is not necessary, just install policycoreutils (or is that what you 
meant?).

You can relabel an individual package like this:

/etc/dpkg/postinst.d/selinux packagename

No, a reinstall. There was a policycoreutils.list and etc already in
the system and a setfiles.8 man page. I did a

	apt-get install --reinstall policycoreutils

and just forced it. No idea why it gave me only a partial 
install.

Using Colin's Debian archive

[Dale Amon]

If you are trying to work with the experimental 
debian packages for selinux available from Colin's
site, you can fit it into your normal update 
procedures.

Add this line to the top of your /etc/apt/sources.list file:

deb http://web.verbum.org/debian experimental/

Add this to your /etc/apt/preferences file, or if
you haven't got one, make this the whole of it:

Package: *
Pin: release l=walters
Pin-Priority: 1100

This will also work with dselect if you are using
apt as the update method.
